Bringing Shakespeare Alive
About BSC
Brentwood Shakespeare Company was formed in 1994 - when the dream of a small group of people became reality. Their vision was for people in the community to bring Shakespeare to life in the wonderful acting space of Brentwood Theatre. Productions were to be of the very highest standard. They would achieve this by concentrating on just one production each year, with a professional director of outstanding talent and creativity. And every year since then that vision has resulted in productions that achieve critical acclaim and stun audiences with their vitality.

How BSC is run
Brentwood Shakespeare Company is run by a management committee. There is no company of actors. Open auditions are held each year to ensure freshness. Actors from a wide area audition for parts. Sometimes they have worked with us before but often not.
